Massalia (Occupied)

Gateway to Gaul.

Even in the ancient world, cities grew up in places where people had already been living for a long time because the sites were defensible, controlled river crossings, had natural resources nearby or were safe from floods and other natural disasters. Cities, despite their rulers’ best intentions, were rarely planned. There might be sections where public buildings stood by broad, open streets and temples were laid out in magnificent splendour, and patrician dwellings hid rich opulence behind bland frontages. But equally likely, if you walked a few paces in the wrong direction, you would be guaranteed to find a maze of twisty backstreets, cheek-by-jowl houses, and run-down slums, alehouses, whorehouses and slaughterhouses, all jostling for what little space there was within the walls. The city was the world in miniature, with all the wonder and squalor that implied. Romans and Greeks equally could take civic pride in their urbanity and sophistication, and at the same moment be a little disgusted by the dirt and tawdriness of the back streets only yards away.

1	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_11_Celtic_Levies) Lugoae Vocontae (Celtic Levies) During periods of strife and war, it is sometimes necessary to call upon ordinary citizens to organize as militia. Called Lugoae, militia in Celtic societies are farmers, craftsmen, fishermen, and so on, called to brief military service in periods of crisis. They may train a few times a year to fight, and games and sports encourage a decent level of physicality, but they're still only militia, and can only be trusted to do so much.

2	120	Cavalry / Melee Cavalry / (AOR_11_Celtic_Light_Cavalry) Vocontae Epos (Vocontii Cavalry) Vocontae Epos constitute the bulk of Vocontii cavalry. Well-trained compared to many of their enemies’ cavalry, they are invaluable to any army. They throw javelins at a distance, depleting an enemy before charging with their main spears. They are trained to throw javelins, charge, and withdraw repeatedly, and they do it well. A bronze helmet, shield, and light weapons may not seem the equipment of any particularly great cavalry, but they are a solid medium cavalry force, capable of running down routers, defeating light cavalry, and skirmishing if necessary.

3	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (AOR_11_Celto_Hellenic_Infantry) Keltohellenikoi Thorakitai (Celto-Hellenic Infantry) These shock infantry are Celto-Hellenic 'men-at-arms,' Celtic warriors of a mixed culture. While they are not of especially great station, they are capable warriors fighting in the Celtic manner, in a motley combination of Hellenic and Celtic gear and dress: long Celtic shields, a Greek helmet, a Celtic sword, and javelins. They soften up an opponent with their javelins and charge an enemy once they're weakened with the great force of Celtic warriors.

4	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (AOR_11_Greek_Colonist_Levies) Massaloi Pantodapoi (Massilian Colonist Levies) The heritage of the citizen-soldier runs deep in all Greeks, no matter what their home.
4	300	300	562	562								26	9	11	66	4	20	30
5	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Hoplites) Massaloi Hoplitai (Massilian Hoplites) Hoplites: no other word says Greeks at war in quite the same way.
5	200	200	1021	1021								29	9	13	62	12	20	40
6	200	Melee Infantry / Hoplite/Pike Infantry / (AOR_11_Massalian_Thorax_Hoplites) Massaloi Thorakitai Hoplitai (Massilian Thorax Hoplites) These Massilian warriors are equipped in the traditional hoplite style, sporting heavy chainmail cuirasses.
6	200	200	1117	1117								30	9	13	70	14	20	40
7	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Apple-Bearers) Melophoroi (Persian Apple-Bearers) These troops are not the picked elite of the Persian army, but they constitute the backbone of the army as its standing core of professional soldiers. They are not hoplites, nor do they fight in a phalanx, but neither are they unskilled levies. They carry a long spear with counterweights made of silver and gold �apples,� (so are called melophoroi, �apple-bearers�), a dipylon shield, and wear the typical Persian scale armour, but have no helmets.

8	200	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Elite_Shield_Bearers) Vazraka Sparabara (Elite Shield Bearers) The Sparabara are recruited from full members of Persian society. They are trained from childhood to be soldiers, and when not called out to fight on campaigns in distant lands, they practice hunting on the vast plains of Persia.
8	200	200	1017	1017								32	9	15	63	12	20	55
9	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Shield_Bearers) Sparabara (Shield Bearers) The Sparabara, meaning "shield bearers" in Persian, are usually the first to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the enemy. These soldiers are armoured in quilted linen and carry large rectangular wicker shields as a form of light manoeuvrable defence.
9	300	300	634	634								26	9	12	58	6	20	40
10	175	Missile Infantry / Missile Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Slingers) Shuban-i Fradakhshana (Persian Slingers) In battle, slingers are used as light skirmishers, troops with no armour or melee weapons but who rush forward against the enemy to pepper them with stones, only to flee when threatened.
10	175	175	401	401				6	190	5	20	20	7	8	25	1	20	35
11	300	Melee Infantry / Spear Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Spear) Gund-i Nizagan (Eastern Spearmen) These poorly trained levy infantry are armed with a spear and a leather-covered wicker shield. Spearmen such as these are trained to form ordered ranks and to march in step. Grouping together bolsters morale and the shieldwall helps to neutralise arrows.

12	200	Melee Infantry / Melee Infantry / (Eas_Atr_Elite_Infantry) Poy-Darsam (Persian Elite Infantry) This unit is comprised of some of the greatest warriors in the ancient world. Poy-Darsam are armed with a wooden palta shield, and characteristic axes and maces. They wear brilliant corselets of heavy scales to protect against the fiercest attacks, and they can hold their own in even a protracted melee. Their great pride and honour prevent them from wearing any head protection however, as that would be considered a cowardly and shameful act.
